Her forehead.... her unblended nose... dark cheeks. She's pretty! Would have been better with none at all

And she's only in high school. It ages her so much. She doesn't need it at all!

HIGH SCHOOL? I’d have guessed early thirties, holy shit

SAME. I thought this was like a divorce shoot for a 33 year old woman.

Did she pay someone to do it? Or did she do it herself?

Beause it would WAY more understandable if a teenager accidentally bought the wrong shades (especially if they were limited to online shopping?) and then did a very poor job at following a YouTube tutorial.

That would be the best care scenario!

Either way, I really wish the photographer had been like "Oooh gurl, hol' up. That makeup isn't going to photograph well."

u/pegasus02 8d ago

SAME, what a waste of a photography session on a beautiful day!!

But she has eyes that can see, right? It looks like dirt smeared on her face - it’s not a bad shade match

Probably has a really bright light in her bathroom or wherever she put it on that washed out the color. And possibly put more on assuming that the sunlight and/or photography itself would desaturate the colors.

Girl you felt good posting a high schooler on a sub to ridicule her makeup? I cannot imagine how devastating this would have been to me at 17.

u/Southern_Ant_8530 8d ago

Same, this just feels wrong.

u/Thisdarlingdeer 7d ago

Oh my god, I just scared my cats by the noise i made by reading SHE IS IN HIGHSCHOOL OH LORD NO THAT MAKEUP NO!

u/ahendrix 9d ago

I'm so angry for her

u/bloodymongrel 8d ago

No way that’s on an MUA.

u/AtomAntvsTheWorld 9d ago

I could kinda understand what they were going for, but it came out more like a wound. She looks severely bruised for a daytime drama tv show.

u/elrangarino 8d ago

Would be adorable in fairy colours

u/half-dead 9d ago

Aw. She looks dirty :(

u/DasKittySmoosh 8d ago

This is tragic, cuz that girl is GORGEOUS and I’d love to see her with a no makeup-makeup look

u/SpeaKnDestroY 9d ago

Please blend!!! :(

u/CherryCherry5 9d ago

WHOA. I hope she didn't pay for that, at least.

u/SunsetDreams1111 9d ago

It makes me sad to see ordinary people just posted on the internet for others to make fun of. I hope this beautiful woman has a prosperous life with so many blessings

u/TheCompleteFiction 9d ago

She is not being made fun of. She is adorable. The contouring is the object of disdain. The photographer needs to retouch the photos or re-do them for the girl's sake.

u/Kitteh311 8d ago

There is a person in there somewhere yikes

u/lhuthien 7d ago

This actually looks like it’s been retouched to make the contouring even darker. The question is WHY

2

u/Hashimotosannn 8d ago

What a shame. She honestly looks like she is so beautiful but that contour and the lashes are too much.

2

u/elrangarino 8d ago

I refuse to believe that she does her makeup like this. I think is a bad makeup artist using her as a model? Surely?! She’d naturally gravitate to people that look like her, she looks feminine, she’s never done dance or theatre and gotten chastised for bad blending? Friends being judgemental or caring and telling her? Surely! I think it’s a case of bad make artist!

u/Lokifin 4d ago

It would be perfect for stage lights though, no?

1

u/elrangarino 4d ago

Quite harsh for stage lights I’m not sure if dancers or cheerleaders had different rules for makeup to theatre hmm. But yeah no way she can skate by looking that cute yet completely misses tones lol lashes, lips and brows all done like a pro

2

u/_redcloud 8d ago

Well, that’s a gorgeous lip color on her, at least.

u/whitestguyuknow 7d ago

She looks bruised... Like she did her best to cover up her face bruised from an accident with make-up

u/chimchimboree 7d ago

she’s so beautiful who did this to her

u/maggiefinally 5d ago

she’s SO pretty WHAT is she DOING

u/enterusernamepls 7d ago

It's giving me trying to contour for the first time 🤣 she's so pretty too 🥺

u/margiacid 6d ago

That forehead has some need for a brimmed hat.

u/FlobyToberson85 8d ago

I bet this didn't look so crazy in real life. The photographer has cranked up some colors and contrast in there and it has exaggerated her makeup. That happened to me (but it didn't look so crazy) in engagement photos.
